TR16 Operation 

 

The TR16 thermostat provides the latest technology in a full-featured universal thermostat with serial 
communications. The TR16 has many new features including: 
 

• 

Separate Heating and Cooling setpoints 

• 

Multistage HVAC systems support 

• 

Wall Display Unit setting of 

Network Address 

F/C temperature display mode 

Sensor calibration (internal and remotes) 

• 

Automatic Remote Sensor detection 

• 

AutoSend Mode for network communications 

• 

Adjustable operating parameters from the network 

• 

Enhanced serial protocol 

 
The TR16 thermostat consists of two parts, a 

Wall Display Unit (WDU)

 and a 

HVAC

 

Control Unit

.  The 

Wall Display Unit provides users functions like a traditional thermostat and connects to the Control Unit by a 
4 wire cable.  The Control Unit connects at the HVAC system using the standard thermostat connections 
and provides the thermostatic temperature control of the system.  The Control Unit also has the serial  
RS485 communications network connection. 
 
The TR16 now maintains separate heating and cooling setpoints.  The display shows the setpoint of the 
current operating mode (in Auto mode, the system keeps track of the current operating mode of the last call, 
either heating or cooling).  New network commands have been added for a heating setpoint (SPH) and a 
cooling setpoint (SPC).  

Note that the TR16 maintains compatibility with single setpoint protocols by 

continuing to support the current SP command for both commands and status reports.  

 
In addition to the universal Standard or Heat Pump HVAC systems support, the TR16 has multistage 
heating/cooling system outputs.  The control unit can support 2 stages of heating and cooling for Standard 
systems. It supports 3 stages of heating and 2 stages of cooling for Heat Pump systems. 
 
The TR16 has a convenient setup mode from the Wall Display Unit.  You can set the network address, F or C 
display mode and easily calibrate the internal and all attached remote sensors. 
 
The TR16 has automatic detection and setup of remote temperature sensors.  Remote sensors have address 
settings that, when detected by the TR16, will be used for specific functions, such as, in lieu of the internal 
sensor, averaging with other sensors or an outdoor temperature sensor. 
 
The TR16 can be used in a polled network such as the RCS CommStar network or can be set to AutoSend 
mode that will transmit changes in thermostat data as it occurs. 
 
Most operating parameters (variables), such as staging deltas, delays and run times are now viewable and 
adjustable from the network. 
 
Remote control of the TR16 via the serial communications network allows for the thermostat’s temperature, 
heating and cooling setpoints, operating mode and fan functions to be monitored or changed.  A robust serial 
protocol allows full control of all the thermostat setup and operating parameters.  Many new serial commands 
have been added to support the new features and to allow the operating parameters to be viewed or changed.
